1# AAE BugReport App
2
3A test tool that is intended to show how to access Android Automotive OS bugreporting APIs.
4It stores all bugreports in user 0 context and then allows uploading them to GCS.
5
6## Flow
7
81. User long presses Notification icon
92. It opens BugReportActivity as dialog under current user (e.g. u10)
103. BugReportActivity connects to BugReportService and checks if a bugreporting is running.
114. If bugreporting is already running it shows in progress dialog
125. Otherwise it creates MetaBugReport record in a local db and starts recording audio message.
136. When the submit button is clicked, it saves the audio message in temp directory and starts
14   BugReportService.
157. If the drivers cancels the dialog, the BugReportActivity deletes temp directory and closes the
16   activity.
178. BugReportService running under current user (e.g. u10) starts collecting logs using dumpstate,
18    and when finished it updates MetaBugReport using BugStorageProvider.
199. BugStorageProvider is running under u0, it schedules UploadJob.
2010. UploadJob runs SimpleUploaderAsyncTask to upload the bugreport.
21
22Bug reports are zipped and uploaded to GCS. GCS enables creating Pub/Sub
23notifications that can be used to track when new  bug reports are uploaded.
24
25## System configuration
26
27BugReport app uses `CarBugreportServiceManager` to collect bug reports and
28screenshots. `CarBugreportServiceManager` allows only one bug report app to
29use it's APIs, by default it's none.
30
31To allow AAE BugReport app to access the API, you need to overlay
32`config_car_bugreport_application` in `packages/services/Car/service/res/values/config.xml`
33with value `com.android.car.bugreport`.
34
35## App Configuration
36
37UI and upload configs are located in `res/` directory. Resources can be
38[overlayed](https://source.android.com/setup/develop/new-device#use-resource-overlays)
39for specific products.
40
41### Config
42
43Configs are defined in `Config.java`.
44
45### System Properties
46
47- `android.car.bugreport.force_enable` - set it `true` to enable bugreport app on **all builds**.
48
49### Upload configuration
50
51BugReport app uses `res/raw/gcs_credentials.json` for authentication and
52`res/values/configs.xml` for obtaining GCS bucket name.
53
54## Starting bugreporting
55
56The app supports following intents:
57
581. `adb shell am start com.android.car.bugreport/.BugReportActivity`
59    - generates `MetaBugReport.Type.INTERACTIVE` bug report, shows audio message dialog before
60    collecting bugreport.
612. `adb shell am start-foreground-service -a com.android.car.bugreport.action.START_SILENT com.android.car.bugreport/.BugReportService`
62    - generates `MetaBugReport.Type.SILENT` bug report, without audio message. It shows audio dialog
63    after collecting bugreport.
64
